We introduce the notion of an \emph{$n$-dimensional mixed dihedral group}, a general class of groups for which we give a graph theoretic characterisation. In particular, if $H$ is an $n$-dimensional mixed dihedral group then the we…

Conductivity of a disorder-free intrinsic graphene is studied to the first order in the long-range Coulomb interaction and is found to be \sigma=\sigma_0(1+0.01 g), where 'g' is the dimensionless ("fine structure") coupling constant. The…
The full distribution of the conductance $P(G)$ in quasi-one-dimensional wires with rough surfaces is analyzed from the diffusive to the localization regime. In the crossover region, where the statistics is dominated by only one or two…

We show that the low-energy electronic structure of arbitrarily stacked graphene multilayers with nearest-neighbor interlayer tunneling consists of chiral pseudospin doublets. Although the number of doublets in an $N$-layer system depends…

Low-frequency noise with the spectral density S(f)~1/f^g (f is the frequency and g~1) is a ubiquitous phenomenon, which hampers operation of many devices and circuits. A long-standing question of particular importance for electronics is…
Minimal conductivity of a single undoped graphene layer is known to be of the order of the conductance quantum, independent of the electron velocity. We show that this universality does not survive electron-electron interaction which…
